Saw the above on DealMac. Several time in the past, List subscribers have saved me from making an unwise purchase by noting that an item on offer was perhaps not the best buy. E.g., when SmallDog (and Apple) this year offered a reduced price on the sale of Aluminum Power Books, without noting they were Rev A, folks on the list cautioned me to first determine if they were Rev A and then, for a number of reasons, if they were, to give them a pass. I checked, they were Rev A, and I gave them a pass and got a 14" G4 iBook for my wife instead. I presume that the new iMacs will have a built-in modem, so the lack of a modem on the above Extreme Base Stations should be no problem. Right??? May I assume that, using the ABS and the iBook only one floor apart in my home would mean that the absence of an antenna port would likewise not be a deal breaker?
